Several architectural works have also been modelled on or inspired by, the Colosseum. These include:
* The ''Kongresshalle'', or "Congress Hall", (1935, unfinished) at the [[Nazi Party Rally grounds]], [[Nuremberg]], [[Germany]]
* The [[Summer Olympic Games]] [[Olympic medal|medal]] from 1928 to 2000, designed by [[Giuseppe Cassioli]], features a depiction of the Colosseum. At the [[2004 Summer Olympics]] in [[Athens]] the Colosseum was replaced by a depiction of the [[Panathinaiko Stadium]]
* The exterior of the [[Vancouver Public Library]] in [[British Columbia]] resembles the current state of the Colosseum. It was designed by [[Moshe Safdie]].
* The [[Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum]] entrance was inspired by the Colosseum.
* The [[Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana]] was very closely modelled on the Colosseum. It was built for Mussolini for the Universal Exhibition of 1942 but the exhibition never happened due to the outbreak of World War II. The architects were Giovanni Guerrini, Ernesto Bruno La Padula, and Mario Romano.
* [[McCaig's Tower]], overlooking [[Oban]], Scotland.
